Abstract: A distance of flight (DOF) approach to mass spectroscopy in which the resolution among the various ion masses is accomplished in space rather than time. A separate detector is associated with each ion mass resolution element.  The DOF mass spectrometer can serve as one element in a tandem arrangement, which has the capability to produce a full two-dimensional precursor/product spectrum for each bunch of ions extracted from the source. A "distance-of-flight" (DOF) mass analyzer, having an ion storage device (21) means for applying an ion extraction voltage pulse to said storage device (22, 23), a field free region, and detectors (29), is used in combination with time-of-flight (TOF) mass analysis for precursor and product dispersion. All the precursor ions can undergo a mass changing reaction simultaneously, while still retaining the essential information about the particular precursor m/zvalue from which each product m/z value emanated. Through the use of a two-dimensional detector, all the products ions from all the precursors can be detected for each batch of ions analyzed.

Title: Sheet identifying device and method
Inventor: KIMURA YASUYUKI
IPC: G07D7/12
Filed: 2004-04-23
Abstract: A sheet identifying device and method for stably identifying a sheet while preventing erroneous identification caused by particles adhering in an imaging unit and caused by variation of the illuminance of illumination. An imaging unit (7) images the inside of the imaging unit (7) before a sheet is transferred to capture image data on an image showing no sheet. When a sheet is transferred into the imaging unit (7), the imaging unit (7) images the sheet and captures image data on an image showing the sheet. An image data analyzing section (8) creates a density histogram of the image showing no sheet from the image data on the image showing no sheet, detects particles adhering in the imaging unit (7) by using the density histogram. If the amount of particles is over a reference value, the image data analyzing section (8) sends a report about the abnormality of the imaging unit (7) to a control unit (2). The image data analyzing unit (8) creates a density histogram of the image showing the sheet from the image data on the image showing the sheet, determines the brightness of the image on the basis of the density histogram, and adjusts the imaging operation of the imaging unit (7) according to the determination.
